🪐 DLC

Otter & Axolotl are no longer available as single items. I followed your advice and converted them into DLCs. If you already own them, you keep them. The switch is purely to simplify the buying process and let me run more regular discounts.

ℹ️ Important Notes

Event Period: The Summer Festival runs from Thursday, June 18 to Thursday, July 30, 2026 (20:00 UTC).
After the Event: Any items, Keys, and Treasure Chests you collect stay in your inventory once the event ends and can still be used.

Happy bathing and Happy Wiggling!🪱
